*VANITY* Help, Need to know facts on Confirming Judges
self

Posted on 04/15/2002 12:11:27 PM PDT by BallparkBoys

I was looking for some help from fellow Freepers. I'm arguing with a lib about the Dem's holding up confirmations of judges. I'm explaining that its been done for many, many years, but that it has gotten worst lately. Does anyone have any "hard evidence", facts, or numbers to back me up? Thank you in advance.... . PS, first post, so dont flame me... :)

This article is a couple of months old, but it might help

P.S. - the most likely posts to get flamed are:
1. 1st-time posts
2. Vanity posts
3. Posts where you acknowlege you shouldn't post, but do it anyway

You hit the trifecta, but it seems like a worthy cause...
